At a meeting of the Gazetted Officers in the Royal Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force (RSVGPF) on Friday, August 06, 2021, it was concluded that purportedly “peaceful protests” have become less and less peaceful.
The RSVGPF therefore take this opportunity to educate/remind the members of the three (3) currently active Political Parties, Trade Unions and the public at large, of the Public Order Act, Chapter 396 of the Laws of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Revised Edition of 2009.
It is the fervent hope and sincere belief of the members of the Royal Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force that the leaders of the aforementioned organizations would honestly advise their members, supporters and the public at large, to abide by the Laws in general and in this case, the Public Order Act, Chapter 396. (Please see attached copy of the Public Order Act).
An invitation is also extended to members of the aforementioned organizations and the public to visit the office of the Commissioner of Police, if there is need for conversation and clarification on this matter.
The Police will be strictly and responsibly enforcing this Act and other Laws of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
